Sun-Labs Ultra Dark Kit Review & Giveaway

Hi Bellas,

I'm back with another review and giveaway. This one is for my self-tanners out there. I had a chance to review the SunLabs Ultra Dark Self Tanning Kit. I was pleasantly surprised at how great it worked for me and I'm also giving you a chance to win!

I'll say that I had a pretty good experience with this kit. I've used it for several weeks and it's performed really well. This is a great option for those of us who want a bronze, healthy tan without the damaging effects of the sun.

Pros

non-streaking

applies a nice bronze color, not orange

kit includes everything you need to prep, tan, and maintain the color

good price for the package

available in multiple shades

smell isn't that bad

Cons

stains hands a lot, you need a good exfoliator to get it off

not completely scent free...after the tan develops you smell the scent of the chemicals more

Would I Recommend: Yes. This is the best self-tanner I used so far. The price is reasonable for the entire kit. My drugstore tanners cost around the same and they're not as good. If you're a regular self-tanner I think this is a good choice.

You can find this product at http://www.sun-laboratories.net/best-selling-products/sun-labs-beach-bag-ultra-dark-set.HTMLThis great kit is on sale for $49.95 (normally $85.95)!!!!

i would LOVE this because i agree, i get more yellow. sometimes when i tan too much in the sun, i tan dirty. like it looks like my skin is dirty but it's actually my tan. so i think this would be awesome to try.

I would love to win because I to grew up in Florida. I moved up to Oregon last year.I am so used to being tan. I got really pale. I have never self tanned, but I love the idea of it. The sun is really harmful these days :D

My dad had skin cancer over 25 yrs ago & my mom has been battling it for the past 3 years. I just can't get a tan....it would be foolish of me to chance it. I'd like to win so I could finally have some color & not look like Casper anymore! Thx Sun Labs & Ren!

I would love to win this kit..Like you with age I've relized the sun is a big no no . I live in SO. California and basically can't leave the house with out sun screen on so as you can imagine I am as pale as pale can get. I have herd nothing but great reviews on this product and want to thank you for having this give away :)YT name : lovinmy7

I would love to recieve this product because I am very pale, so you can imagine that my vains show, which I hate. This product would give me a lot more confidence either way, good luck everyone. And thanks for the review Ren :D

I would LOVE to win this esp. since it's an Ultra Dark kit! I used to tan out at the beach all the time, but since i'm getting older, I stay out of the sun as much as possible...I still want to look nice and TAN! :)

I'd Like To Win This Product Because I Avoid The Sun's Harmful Rays By Staying Inside The House Or In Shade & That Is Why I Am Pale. I Would Love To Have A Little Color & This Product Seems Like It Would Do The Trick. Thanks For Having This Giveaway! :)

I would LOOVVEE to win because I worked all summer and didn't have the chance to get a tan! And winter is coming fast! But also, my skin is so fair and pale it would be nice to have some colour without all the terrible damage that comes along with the sun! I've heard nothing but good things about this product and would like to try it. xo

I would LOVE to enjoy this kit because I have problems getting a tan and I dont want to ruin my skin. I have a lot of people in my family with skin cancer so I have tried really hard to avoid the sun! I have tried a million self tanners from the drug stores and they turn me orange =[

Trying this product is something I've wanted to do since I seen the first review. Ordering things online isn't easy for me. Winner this product would be great for me as I'm very pale and use to Tan at the salon alot but I've stopped that. I've tried the spay tan but to be honest I hate it. Winning this would be great.Great Vid & Review!

I would love to win because I live in Arizona and have to slather myself in sunblock daily. Hence, Pale Porcelain Princess, lol. The Valley of the Sun and can't tan! I just burn to a crisp, so self tanners are awesome!

One of my friends always makes fun of me saying how pale and dead I look >;( If I tan I just get sunburn and start peeling. That then just leaves me with white and brown spots blehh I would lovee to get a real tan!

I will admit - I am ADDICTED to tanning. I love tanning but I know it's SO bad for my skin... therefore, I'd love to try this out and see if this would be a good alternative! Most self-tanners look orange to me and doesn't last long so I'm still on the look for one.

I would really love to win this cause I'm really pale...lol I don't tan out in the sun because I end up looking like a lobster, seriously! Plus I would like to avoid getting skin cancer! Thanks for the giveaway! ^.~

hi renren! i would love to try this product, because i have heard so many great things about it from youtube gurus. I've always wanted to be tanned, but avoid tanning beds cause of the risk of skin cancer. I have tried drug store tanners, but they do not seem to work :(.

I would like to win this because I like to be tan, but I know that I shouldnt go tanning anymore because it is so bad for my skin. Also, I have never tried a sunless tanner that didn't look orange (which is why I go tanning).

i really would LOVE to win this kit!! i always try to be out in the sun as much as possible trying to get a tan but i never do! im quite fair skinned and i burn easily enough in the sun since im irish. my skin peels so much! i also tend to break out like crazy when i go out in the sun so that is also a con. but i recently have stopped tanning overall because i realized how deadly it can be to my skin. my grandmother actually died from skin cancer.. so this kit would be so so so helpful for me and would really boost my self confidence up!! all of my friends were able to go on vacations while i just stayed home during the summer. :( so it would be awesome to go back to school with a nice, healthy, natural looking tan. i really appreciate you having this giveaway because i just don't think tanning is worth it when you can get the same effect from a bottle, without the deadly outcomes. (:

I've been looking for great self tanning lotion and yet have found the perfect one. This sounds promising and I heard lots of good things about it and would definitely love to try out this brand. And like Snooki says.. "I love being tanned!! ok!" lol :)

I would like to win this because I really wanted to try this product out. my legs are definitely lighter than my arms and face. I wanted to share this product with my best friend as well, she is really pale, and she always wanted to tan and see what she would look like with a tan.

i would love to win because i live in England and we have practically no sun! haha its sucks:/I've been trying fake tan for a while and all they do is give me streaks!ahh and then when i go out i have to cover my legs as they are half orange!lol so yeah i'd love to try this out!:D

I would love to win this product if it will make my skin look anything like yours. I have to apply tinted moisturizers to my neck and face to make it match up the rest of my body and not look like I photoshopped my own head on me, LOL. It would be great if I could maintain a tan easier this fall!
